Fair warning: If you’re starting your first business, you probably shouldn’t be here yet.
Build a website first. Get customers. Validate that people will pay you. THEN think about building tools and apps.
That said, AI makes software development accessible to non-developers. Claude Code can build functional applications, automations, and tools that would have required a development team two years ago.
What You Can Build
| Type | What It Is | When To Build |
|---|---|---|
| MCP Servers | Custom tools for AI assistants | You need specific automations |
| SaaS Products | Subscription software | You’ve validated the problem first |
| Internal Tools | Automations for your business | You’re doing repetitive tasks |
Where to Start
Build an MCP Server
Create custom tools that extend what Claude can do. Pull data from APIs, automate workflows, integrate your systems.
SaaS
Coming soon. Building subscription products with AI assistance.
Remember: A great app that nobody wants is still a failure. Validate first, build second.
